beneath the black, the sky looks dead

WHO: THE VOID and YOU?
WHERE: Around the City and the Brooklyn Bridge
WHEN: Sunday, 8/2
WARNINGS: Violence, death, chaos
SUMMARY: The Sentry loses control.
FORMAT: Quick.


[ There was no abrupt revelation, no struggle; when Robert Reynolds had opened his eyes that day, the Sentry was simply nowhere to be found. He'd flown from the mansion into the sky, a poisonous oily creature wearing Bob's skin and the Sentry's clothes until even that began to shed. Red eyes and an aura like fire and toxic ash, sharp tendrils coiling out behind and around him like sentient shadows.

Years. Years here, trapped, ignored, denied. Bob was done fighting, and hurting; his mind went blank so that someone else could use his body to fight back. But it was his body, too -- the Void celebrated his freedom by flying into the sky, raising his arms and calling upon the sky to darken in deep reds and purples. Clouds collected and rain started pouring; he raised his face to the rain and smiled, before he dropped from the sky and flew cleanly through the Brooklyn Bridge. ]

[ No.

No, no, no.

The silence between her and Max's still body is only punctured by her sharp breathing and occasional curse under her breath. She needs to move, but in a surprising turn of events her legs don't want to budge.

She can't leave Max here like this.

Sirens in the distance grow louder. She can hear voices now. More stone and steel hitting the streets somewhere else. Nothing from Max.

Slowly, she lays Max down on and picks up her suit. She looks at her one last time before slipping back onto the bike. The engine roars to life and she speeds away, almost as if she needs to distance herself from another failure. ]
